Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.Abstract The Cenozoic convergence between the Indian and Asian plates has driven large‐scale mantle convection that interacts with both plates. Understanding this convergence benefits from clear imaging of the lithosphere‐asthenosphere boundary (LAB).

The 2025 Mw 7.6 Aomori‐Oki Megathrust Sequence and a Slip‐Parallel Seismic Belt to the Trench
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.Abstract The 2025 Mw 7.6 Aomori‐Oki earthquake nucleated near the 1968 Mw 8.3 Tokachi‐Oki rupture area. Our waveform inversion reveals large slip (>1 m) extending ∼40 km northward from the hypocenter, overlapping the inferred 1968 northern asperity. Minor secondary slip (0.2–0.6 m) was resolved ∼60 km updip, and high‐precision relocations show that ...

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.The evolution of pore fluid pressure ( Pf$P_{\mathrm{f}}$) in the most seaward portion of a subduction accretionary prism plays an essential role in the cycle of tsunamigenic earthquakes. Based on recent geophysical observations, here we propose a testable conceptual model for this evolution for northern Cascadia offshore of Washington.

A geologic window into a subduction megathrust
Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 2007 Megathrust faults marking the subduction of oceanic plates are fundamental features of plate tectonics. In addition, these faults have significant societal relevance since friction along them can generate devastating earthquakes. One of the most important tasks in solid Earth sciences is to understand the mechanical and thermal processes that ...

AGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.Abstract Relative plate motion in subduction zones transitions from frictional slip to viscous flow with increasing depth and temperature. The frictional‐viscous transition can control the depth extent of megathrust earthquakes and episodic tremor and slip (ETS).

Deep slow-slip events promote seismicity in northeastern Japan megathrust [PDF]
, 2020 The sliding movement between oceanic and crustal plates in subduction zones is accommodated through both earthquakes and quasi-static or transient aseismic slip.

Frictional behaviour of megathrust fault gouges under in-situ subduction zone conditions
, 2013 Subduction zone megathrusts generate the largest earthquakes and tsunamis known. Understanding and modelling “seismogenesis” on such faults requires an understanding of the frictional processes that control nucleation and propagation of seismic slip ...
